I took the "Jewelry Repair Technician" course and it was a complete rip off. First, they are supposed to supply everything you will need to complete this course. They do not, the tools they do send are totally inadequate, then they recommend you "find a jeweler and use his larger tools".
The books they send you to do the classes from are so poorly printed you cannot see what they are attempting to show you. Also they are not very well written. You have to have previous knowledge about jewelry making to follow their instructions.
An instructor is to be provided 5 days a week, 8 hours a day. When I called to talk to someone regarding a problem I was told no one was available and would not be for over 2 weeks.
I don't know what the other courses they are offering are like, but I strongly advise anyone interested in the Jewelry or arts classes to avoid this school.
